JULY 13, 2021
A referral is the best way to get a meeting with the decision maker. There are two parts to the sales process: Part One: Getting meetings with decision makers. Part Two: Everything that happens after that. Referrals help you ace Part One and set you up for success in Part Two. That’s an over-simplification, I know, but it’s the easiest way for people to understand the power of a referral introduction.

By Tibor Shanto. Summer, traditionally a time to kick back, relax and enjoy the brightest and warmest time of year. Business seems to move at a calmer pace as people enjoy school and work vacations. And while there is no doubt that the pace may be different, there are ways to take advantage of the “ summer lull.” But while elements of the change in pace are true, it requires a change in our action, not a lack of action.

First, it was a phone call. Then an email. Finally, a text message. Was my wife trying to get a hold of me? No, it was my doctor's office. It was that time of the year — time for my annual check-up.

It's uncomfortable, a bit invasive, and he's going to tell me all of the things that I've done wrong in the last year that I already know, but I don't want to admit to myself.
